I created this layout following the Blue Fern Monthly Sketch challenge. I used Webster's pages Spring Market paper collection.

This was my first time using a Blue Fern Studios Chipboard accent.  I love all the designs available, I will have to get a few more as they add so much to my layouts.

this is the piece I used.

A few close ups!

Color me Happy Birthday

Had a little play time this morning so I made another card for the card box!

I used one of my La La Land Crafts stamps called Luka with Crayons. I colored my image with the Faber Castell Aquarelle pencils on cold press watercolor paper. I followed a few card challenges I used the sketch from Sketch Saturday, The colors from Ooh La La Creations Blog (orange/green). The card also fits the Simon Says Stamp challenge for Birthday/Celebration. Papertake Weekly with anything goes.

Sugar Creek Hollow

Having one of those nights fighting a headache where I can't sleep. I'm surfing the net and crafting here and there. I saw a facebook post for Prima where they are holding a weekly contest "all about the fans" from now until Dec. I watched my good friend Kathryn Krieger on Ustream tonight and she created some of the greatest backgrounds using quilting style patterns. I wanted to give it a try so I created a quick card using some of my scrap or cut of pieces from Prima's songbird collection incorporating the quilting pattern. So stop on over at Prima's facebook wall and like my card and help me win this weeks challenge.

Have a Happy Crafty day!

I was Born to do this.....

Wow it's been a little bit since I posted a project. Hope everyone is having a Happy and Safe Monday! My thoughts and prayers are with all those in the path of mother nature's wrath of Hurricane Sandy.

Today I want to share a layout I made the other night.

OK I know I was a teenager once and I'm sure I did strange things that my mother didn't understand. Well now I'm the mother of a 16 year old who does many things I don't understand. One... taking random pictures of herself for the social network (facebook). She posted this photo earlier last week and I thought it was kinda inspiring so I created a layout for her.

I tried sticking with a monochromatic color scheme since she took the photo in black and white.

I'm a little Monster!

One of my Favorite things to do is paper piece. 

I will be attending my friends grandson's 1st birthday this weekend and needed a "CUTE" card. 

 The inspiration for this little guy came from a picture I seen of an SVG cut on-line. I don't have the necessarily software to cut SVG files so I improvised. I used my spellbinders oval and circle dies to create this little dinosaur/monster.  

 I'm still on a mission to use up some of my 6x6 paper pads so I just fumbled through my drawer and found Cosmo Cricket -Joy Ride. Not really meant for a birthday paper but I liked the colors and thought it worked perfect for a little boy birhtday card.

The "i'm a little monster" is a stamp from recollections. (item # 171828)

I simply printed the Happy Birthday sentiment on coordinating cardstock since I didn't have a stamp large enough.

This card was SOOOOO much fun to make! I hope this card inspires you to think outside the box. Even though you may not have the described supplies for a project does not mean you can't create it.

Scardy Cat starburst card

I love this starburst pattern and 6x6 paper challenge from The scrap beach. I once again reached into my stash and found a full pad of Hocus Pocus from Pink Paislee. Halloween is fast approaching so I was inspired to make a card fitting the upcoming Holiday. I recently purchased the G45  Happy Haunting stamp set from hampton art and found it to be perfect for this design. The fuzzy spider and webs are dimensional stickers by EK success Jolee's boutique.

I have lots more crafting projects in the works and excited to finish them so I can share with you!

Scrapadabadoo.com has graciously asked me to help out with creating some inspiring projects for there blog and I'm Honored and tickled pink! So stayed tuned for LOTS of great projects and step-by-step tutorials!
